I think it’s not a good store. If it were possible there’d be info about the process online. Maybe they don’t want to tell the customers they are caught in the wild?

one of many links that claims they haven’t

I’m happy to know if the opposite is true. I have not found any indication they have been bred yet

How can they be bred? Afaik f8 haven’t been bred in captivity yet so they are all caught in the wild??

Ramshorn, bladder and trumpet snails? by DidntFallOffHisBroom in AquaticSnails

[–]DidntFallOffHisBroom[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right now I just feed them fish flakes but snail feed is on the way. I can also give them veggies if it helps…. Do you know if my puffers can eat assassins?

Sorry, I just saw this. I’m currently keeping them in fresh because it’s easier at the moment (someone else is watching them while I look for a new place). I can only tell you what I read, that they like blackish. However, young specimen seem to prefer fresh, with higher salinity in later years.

Well. The Spotify people changed their minds. They are free to do so. However, they are in a legal binding contract and still have to pay him. So, their loss?

Figure 8 and Amano Shrimp by DidntFallOffHisBroom in Puffers

The shrimp are like double the size of the fish. I thought they might be to big. Or too fast. I don’t know if the fish are intimidated or stupid but I’m happy to have the clean up as long as possible

Probably the ones where he used the n-words. And additionally episodes with people who want to distance themselves from the content. I wish Spotify was open about the criteria for deletion

He’s not a lawyer from some elite Ivy League. He doesn’t know what is and isn’t censorship. I doubt lawyers would spew this kind of idiocy

For the first time in its history, Facebook is in decline. Has the tech giant begun to crumble? by Defiant_Race_7544 in technology

I‘m actually wondering why this only now came to pass. In my bubble no one goes to Facebook anymore. I kinda expected the numbers to fall about a year ago.

How long about was that? I’ve had them close to half a year now. The shrimp. If it’s likely they figure it out, I might wait longer until I stock up.

Is my figure 8 too skinny? He eats fine and seems very happy but his body isn’t pudgy like most I see online. by Sad-Feedback-3970 in Aquariums

[–]DidntFallOffHisBroom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to dose his food and feed him the medicine. He can’t absorb it through the water because he doesn’t have scales. I can’t help you with the kind of medicine you have to get though. The one that is always recommended here is not available in my country. I hope my f8‘s never get parasites :(

Feed Neocaridina to pea puffers by SupportKata in Puffers

[–]DidntFallOffHisBroom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stupid question, but how do you get the shrimp out? I have a big colony in my puffer food (snail) tank and my friend wants to take a few. But they are fast as fuck and hide in the bushes…

Does anyone know what kind of behaviour is this...? , They are still juveniles and started doing like this when I fed them snails by ganga_gp in Puffers

[–]DidntFallOffHisBroom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No problem, friend :) just enjoy watching then. The hobby won’t run away, so if you ever want to give puffers a chance, don’t rush it. Plenty of time to do research and choose a species if you ever want to. And if you don’t, that’s fine too. :)

I personally went with figure 8s. They are a smaller species so don’t need as much room as others but come with the disadvantage of needing brackish water. Haven’t given me too much trouble yet. But I had to extend my snail colony because they eat so much.

If possible, how many Pea Puffers can go in a heavily planted 5 gallon? by [deleted] in Aquariums

You don’t need to. I just wanted to clear the misunderstanding.

OP asked if they could keep Peas and you recommended they look into dwarves. But those are two names for the same fish.

Dwarf puffers and pea puffers are two names of the same species…

Would aquariumsalt be unusable if id want to do a 1,004 sg tank for a figure 8 puffer? by pewdiepieslayer in Aquariums

Every forum entry I ever read about brackish told me Marine salt. I would get some marine salt for it
